I just updated my system to FreeBSD 13.2-RELEASE-p2 GENERIC amd64. I then ran poudriere to update all the ports on my system. This is the startup message from ntpd: Aug 5 12:45:50 mystic ntpd[71870]: ntpd 4.2.8p15-a (1): Starting Aug 5 12:45:50 mystic ntpd[71870]: Command line: /usr/sbin/ntpd -p /var/db/ntp/ntpd.pid -c /etc/ntp.conf -f /var/db/ntp/ntpd.drift -g Aug 5 12:45:50 mystic ntpd[71870]: ---------------------------------------------------- Aug 5 12:45:50 mystic ntpd[71870]: ntp-4 is maintained by Network Time Foundation, Aug 5 12:45:50 mystic ntpd[71870]: Inc.

After a few minutes, the problem starts again. This was not happening before the upgrade. -- Jerry
